Access In-Place Archive with MS Graph - exchange-server

I need to be able to perform mail operations on folders residing in an Exchange Online Archive (also called In-Place Archive) using MS Graph APIs.
I see that in a similar question a year ago, that Jeffrey Chen from Microsoft answered that they were not supported for the older Office 365 REST APIs.
I would appreciate it if someone could verify that the same is true for the newer Microsoft Graph APIs? They are not included in the results for me/mailFolders query and there doesn't appear to be any option to specify a different Exchange store.
Thank you.

Can a Microsoft Find Time poll be embedded into a web page?

Is it technically possible to use the plugin Microsoft Find Time for an iframe embed to schedule a Microsoft Teams meeting together in a Microsoft Outlook calendar with other accounts using external e-mail addresses?
What other free or commercial tools come to your mind for such a use case, preferrably with location in EU and fully compliant to EU-GDPR with a template of what to add in the data privacy statement.
One tool I already know, but which can't be customized enough for the given use case is Appointlet.
Also, a Microsoft Bookings licence is currently no option.
Are there equal or better alternatives?
Kind regards and thanks,

Dynamics 365 Team license alternative

Recently Microsoft announced some changes to their Dynamics 365 Teams license. The people who have these licenses will not be able to access Sales Hub, Marketing Hub, custom model driven apps etc and will have their own app like Sales Team member app.
These dedicated apps have restrictions of only 15 custom entities.
This change will cause some of our clients a lot of problems. As per my understanding, the only option they will have is to buy the full Dynamics license.
Am I correct on above? If no then feel free to correct me. If yes then can anyone suggest a good alternative?
Yes, the new licensing model is quite confusing.
I suggest to check the updated licensing guide (if not already done)
https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=866544
(if the link does not work, it is taken from here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365-release-plan/2020wave1/dynamics365-sales/license-enforcement-users-new-team-member-licenses)
Allthough this document is quite extensive, it is also recommended to talk with you MS Sales Rep (or anyone else who is responsible for you from MS side) to make sure all your needs are covered.

I am trying to learn Dynamics 365, but the trials https://trials.dynamics.com/ are not long enough. What other alternatives do I have for a sandbox style environment for me to learn Dynamics, ideally something which is a lot longer than 30 days or if I have to pay, something which is not going to cost me an arm and a leg.
Are the following options (ideally without paying) in the hope that I get longer trials:
Use on-prem hyper-v servers to install and configure Dynamics 365 myself
Use the 1 year Azure trial to install and configure Dynamics 365 myself
A docker solution which has everything pre-configured for a 1 year Azure trial for Dynamics 365
Any other solution which I have not considered?
If any of the above options are possible, detailed instructions on how to get these configured would be highly appreciated.
Dynamics 365 purely works on licensing model & short trial period for prospect try-outs. Without license the show cannot run for long time, even for learning purpose. Forget about a year long free try-outs (or learning environment), the Dynamics online will give a 30 days with a possibility of another 30 days extension in trial environment. You can always take out the Customization (solution backup), data backup too and restore in another new 30 days trial to go on.
When we talk about on-premise environments, say Dynamics installed on local server or Azure VM - you will still get a roadblock with key or expiring trial licenses, probably 90 days (IIRC).
Installing D365CE 9.0 – step by step instruction by Andrew Butenko
One thing I remember is Dev Community Plan - I heard in one of the UG meetings, that it's available for a year but neither tried and not sure. This will fit you as this purely for Developer individual use.
If you want to build skills and learn more about Power Apps, Power Automate, and the Common Data Service, the Power Apps Community Plan is the right plan for you. The Power Apps Community Plan gives you a free development environment for individual use, where you can:
Learn to build business apps and workflows with the full
functionality of Power Apps and Power Automate.
Connect to any data source by using our 100+ out of the box
connectors or by creating your own custom connectors.
Explore how you can use the Common Data Service to build powerful
business apps with the common data model and the SDK.
Export the solutions you create in your individual environment, and
list them on AppSource so your customers can test-drive them.
TL;DR Buying a real Dynamics cloud environment with a couple of licenses to do learning/dev is probably simpler/cheaper.
On-prem
MSDN enterprise standard subscription gives you access to an on-prem Dynamics installation with no limit.
As far as I know, only the highest tier provides this. The spreadsheet from the pricing page shows that Dynamics is only for Enterprise, and the pricing page implies that access to those software is for a standard subscription - not monthly.
Pricing: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/pricing/
Access to Microsoft software for Dev/Test use (Windows Server, Windows
SQL Server, and more

With the subscription, you can install everything needed to get one (or more) VM environments running, including Windows Server, SQL Server and Exchange.
Downside with on-prem is that many features are cloud-only nowadays (PCF, Flow/PowerAutomate, etc.) and the version is lagging behind even though cumulative patches are released regularly.
If you go this route, installation instructions are provided on MS Docs. Getting a basic HTTP configuration to work is simple enough, but to get the full functionality (incl. Outlook App on Exchange) it is a bit more involved: you'll have to setup HTTPS domain certificates and ADFS to enable IFD. I suggest to run ADFS5 on a Server 2019 VM if you ever plan to develop with the CRM web api in this configuration, eg to query from VsCode using tokens.

Enterprise message forum/board software and MS Outlook

Is there any message forum/board software (open source or commercial) that allows one to post a question from MS Outlook? I read Kubi Software Inc had this feature. However, a google search for their website seems like the company is no more.
Thanks,
The functionality of exchange folders is similar. Try that.
This is not a perfect answer, obviously, but I'll suggest you reading more about Google Groups, that acts, for some specific cases, as a forum software:

We are looking into solution which involves playing copyright protected video using Microsoft DRM Server and Silverlight player. the video will be played to registered users on the web using Silverlight player.
I've read all MSDN documentation on this subject and kind of get an idea how it is supposed to work.
However, I couldn't find information on pricing and installation of Microsoft Inidividuazation server. Hence, here are my questions for someone with experience in this area:
How fast is it to setup a quick "proof of concept" solution involving windows DRM and Silverlight. Can we do it on our own or need Microsoft help?
What is the pricing for such solution in operations?
thanks!!
To answer your first question: Micorsoft Silverlight has built in support for Microsofts latest DRM technology: PlayReady DRM. To set up a proof of concept solution you will need a license server and a packaging server, both of these are availible through the PlayReady Server SDK which is built upon the .NET framework. Notice: it is an SDK, not an out-of-the box server, so some developing needs to be done. To set up a proof-of-concept solution you will need the SDK, which is accessible to you after a licensing progress that can take a few weeks. For the Silverlight DRM client, all you need is the silverlight development kit, availible free online. It's hard to say how much time that needs to go into developing the license server and packaging server since it depends on how much staff that is availible to the project and the skill of your staff, but creating licenses for the silverlight client is the easiest license to create. It should not be an overwhelming project to take on. You can set up this proof-of-concept solution your self, but you will need to involve microsoft to license the server sdk.
To answer you second question: The pricing for the Server SDK is 30k $, with additional cost depending on number of processors in the license server or a small additional cost for each license that is released by the license server. So it depends on the size of your service and customer base. If you need to release a lot of licenses you will need at more powerful license server, plus release a lot of licenses.
I would also suggest looking into PlayReady service providers. These sell production-ready playready solutions to be used by other service providers that don't wish to implement a whole PlayReady solution by themselves. A list of available service providers is available from Microsoft's PlayReady homepage.
I hope this answers have been at least a little helpful, and I wish you all luck!
You can ask from Microsoft WMDRM 10.1. It is for SERVER 2003, and It's free !!!
